Saw the new Z4 in flesh, sat in it and mightily impressed with the second generation Z4. The interior finishing is finally up to the expectation of the typical BMW owners. The dashboard is covered with what seemed to be high quality leather stitched together via the popular french seam seen on the LCI E90. The Z4 comes in two variants, and the one with 3.0 twin turbo comes with 7 speed DCT that is capable of doing launch control, much simpler to do than previous models. There are a host of other improvements from bigger interior cabin, advanced roadster air conditioning system, various access modes into the car, more program settings for the car normal, sport and sport plus! BMW also spent plenty of time to ensure this roadster emit a sonorous purr at low revs and as one floors the pedal, this purr will turn into an euphoric crescendo!! This car is the real deal! Looks wise, the new Z4 is an evolution of the existing model, a good progression which makes the car even more appealing across all types of BMW owners. The longer front bonnet with bigger kidney grills, do have some resemblance with the legendary 507 roadster. Some pictures to share, taken in the training room. Will load more when I have the time. Enjoy. The Interior with chrome dials,
The look from the rear, (and yes there is an Audi TT in the room for comparison tests!!)
The Z4 with a heart of a beast,
